Given:

In the figure, $\triangle ABC$ is an equilateral triangle.

To do:

We have to find $m \angle BEC$.

Solution:

$\triangle ABC$ is an equilateral triangle

This implies,

$\angle A = 60^o$

$ABEC$ is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Therefore,

$\angle A + \angle E = 180^o$                   (Sum of opposite angles)

$60^o + \angle E = 180^o$

$\angle E = 180^0 - 60^o = 120^o$

Hence $m \angle BEC = 120^o$.
